If Iinteligently shoot this gun at the range, meaning don't overheat it, I will get at least 2000 rounds out of it, but what do the folks at Weatherby know compared to the pros we have here.
That all depends on just how muchaccuracy you are prepared to lose before rebarreling.The accuracy will start degrading long before 2000rounds,but if you are willing to accept the accuracy loss you certainly could get over 2000 rounds out of that barrel.
If you reload 116.8 grains of H50BMG and a 200 Gr Barnes TSX. 3/4" group at 200 yards.
So just how many of those groups have you fired?What is your average group at 200 yards?I have fired an .080" group at 100 yards with my 300ultramag,butit certainly is not the average group for that rifle.
